Despite McCain's Comments,
Senate GOP Not Offering Detailed Budget

The party of No. Just good talking point and lies.

The PARTY OF NO is exposed.

Now that the wind is blowing really hard and lifting their chicken feathers, the real behind of the Repugs is being exposed.

The PARTY OF NO
Is Bankrupt! no new Ideas, Their party is in Shambles. Before they can help Fix the Country they Need to Fix their Sinking Party hahah lololol hahahah

A full detailed budget wouldn't make a lot of sense - no one would go into that much detail. But offering an "alternative" without a single number is just cowardly. Obama put out there the unpopular part of his proposal (tax increases, a bit $$$ pot as a down payment for future health care plant)and took his hits. The Republicans are just putting out there the popular bits of their proposal - everyone like lower taxes, but SPECIFICALLY HOW DO YOU PAY FOR THEM?

Republicans are just putting out re-election slogans at this point, not alternative governing options.

The Republican themesong is the one Groucho Marx sang in the movie Horse Feathers:

"No matter what it is, I'm against it"

The GOP is so stupid that they've painted themselves in a one-way corner when they were getting by with nothing but mindless criticism of Obama. The moment they promised a detailed alternative budget, the expectations were set.

Pathetic, incompetent, shameless behavior

There sure won't be many repubs posting on this thread.

....hehe.

The only things that the GOP is for are Nos. No taxes (= no military, no FBI, no Federal prisons to hold terrorists etc) No restrictions on business (yes to pollution, dangerous or ineffective products) No services to the insignificant classes (i.e. anyone earning under a million.). The GOP has fallen into the bad habit of relying on spin to cover bankruptcy of character and ideas.

Republicans ...the part of no..not the party of "KNOW". they have no idea how to govern or how to fix a problem..which is why they left it to this administration..willing to take on the tough problems.

When all the GOP's can say is a big NO, what do you expect them to come up with?? Party of no ideas, no honor and no character, all you will get is still a resounding NO. So forget about asking them to come up with anything when they have NOTHING. It's a No, No, no.

You don't need a budget if all you do is reduce taxes and stop spending. Failure of the American system is what the GOP wants. It is not about individual representation, it is about corporate representation. It si that simple.

Gregg is right that when the Democrats were the minority they did not offer detailed budgets to counter Republican policies. However, one thing was clear,they were against the Bush tax cuts, wanted out of Iraq (Biden even suggested dividing Iraq into three to satisfy the three largest ethnic groups) wanted better healthcare, etc. They weren't mindlessly criticizing Bush--they offered clear, if liberal alternatives to what Bush offered. The Republicans have offered nothing but more tax cuts for the wealthy while railing against Obama's spending. You can't close the deficit by only cutting taxes. You are depriving the Treasury of income to meet the government's operating needs. Bush did that in 2001 with a $1.2 trillion tax cut...It doesn't work anymore.

I read the 19 page "budget" the Repubs put out and the only policy it offered was a 10% tax bracket for under $100K and 25% for over that with "generous exemptions." Obama is spending money to build the US--the money will benefit us vis the middle class tax cut and infrastructure and making sure business aren't saddled with high health care costs. Repubs are still on "starve the beast" Americans have moved on and seen that while you mean starve the gov't, they will starve too...Just like America moved on from Jimmie Carter and went to Reagan. The pendulum will go back again, but it won't if Repubs are stuck on stupid. Stop being Henny Penny screaming Marxism, socialism and not offering any solutions. It only makes you look stupid. If and when you finally have a good idea, no one will want to listen to you anymore.

Its pretty funny, that all but 3 republican govenors are on board with the presidents budget and stimulus package..it appears those who actually run something besides their "mouth", have more common sense...they know their states and their constituents need help..

Now that the President has offered a responsible budget that puts us on the glide path to lower debt and greater prosperity, will he find time to release a copy of his original birth certificate on file in Hawaii? Why would he send lawyers into court to block the release of such a basic document? Could he be hiding something?

no comment....
wait, one comment

First to produce a non-budget, then for McCain to lie and say the Senate Re-Re's
are working on one, then to find out from another GOP party member they are not working on a budget...

no comment

One should not have to hesitate if he had not made the mistake, if one is guilty, should be sorry for that and should accept in front of all. But here the case is somewhat different, he denies to show the budget as well as hiding the reports. This will be forcing to action against him.

I used to be a Republican. But quite some time ago, the GOP ceased to be interested in governing. My Republican friends seem most concerned with: (1) eradicating taxes, and (2) turning back the social clock 60 years. They want to stop change (e.g., immigrants, world trade, technology . . . loss of national, racial and religious dominance) -- but "change" has already occurred! How do we manage where we go from here? The GOP isn't stepping up to the plate--and it's a loss to the whole country.

Why offer anything constructive when you can snipe from the sidelines?

GOP = liars with no ideas. Yawn.
